“Me too.” I screamed as well and we giggled, both drunk enough to be really enjoying ourselves. I started gyrating my hips and dropping to the floor and I could feel a couple of different guys staring at me. That encouraged me to start moving my body even more, copying moves that I could remember from Britney Spears music videos. I was even starting to forget Xander and his arrogance. I grinned when a hot blond guy came up to me.
“Hey.” He said as he started dancing next to me.
“Hey,” I said back.
“What?” He shouted and moved closer to me.
“I said hey.” I shouted back as I gazed into his deep blue eyes.
“Oh.” He laughed. “Want to dance?”
“Sure.” I nodded and he grinned and moved behind me. Alice grinned at me and I winked at her as I felt his hands on my waist lightly moving behind me. I continued dancing to the music and watched as a gorgeous guy, with a bodybuilder’s body, grabbed Alice and pulled her to him. I giggled as she started dancing with him and closed my eyes again, losing myself to the music. However, it only took a few minutes for me to start feeling uncomfortable. I opened my eyes and looked around the crowded club carefully. The hairs on the back of my head were standing on end and I felt like someone was staring at me. I ignored the feeling and continued dancing, but I wasn’t as into it as I had been earlier.
“Do you want to get out of here?” The man behind me shouted into my ear and I felt his hands moving up my stomach towards my breasts. I grabbed his hands once they reached my ribcage and shook my head.
“Don’t be a tease.” He shouted and I felt him gyrating behind me.
“I’m not.” I shouted back at him, annoyed.
“Let’s get out of here.” His right hand fell to my hip and I was about to push his hand away again, when I felt him suddenly pulled away from him.
“What?” I turned around with a frown and saw Xander standing there, holding the guy back in a tight grip. “Xander! What are you doing here?” I muttered, angry and excited at the same time.
“Is this guy bothering you?” He squeezed the man’s arm tightly and I shook my head quickly. “Get out of here.” He pushed the guy away. “And don’t bother this girl again, you hear me?”
“I wasn’t bothering her.” The guy looked angry. “She wanted it.”
“Get out of here.” Xander pushed him again and I was scared that a fight was about to break out.
“What are you doing here?” I shouted.
“What?” Xander moved closer to me. “I can’t hear you.”
“What are you doing here?” I shouted again, this time into his ear as he stood next to me.
“Aiden and I wanted to make sure that you and Alice were okay.”
“What?” I frowned, even more pissed now. “We’re not kids.”
“Well you both act like kids.” Xander’s body was touching mine now and I shivered. “We wanted to make sure those two dresses didn’t get you both into trouble and it looks like we arrived just in time.”
“Whatever.” I said and looked around. “Where’s Aiden?”
“Gone to make sure Alice is okay with Hulk Hogan’s cousin.” He winked at me and I couldn’t stop myself from laughing.
“You’re stupid.”
“Is that any way to thank your savior?”
“My what?” I scoffed as I licked my suddenly dry lips.
“Your savior.” He grinned and moved forward so that his lips were resting gently against mine. “Do I get a kiss as a thank you?”
“No, you do not.” I swallowed hard, but didn’t move back. I felt the tip of his tongue licking my lips and my whole body trembled at his touch.
“Please.” He said, his eyes daring me to kiss him back as he pushed the tip of his tongue into my open mouth slightly.
“No.” I shook my head and my lips closed on his tongue for a few seconds and sucked.
“There you guys are.” Aiden and Alice approached us and I jumped back from Xander quickly. “It’s time for us to go.”
“What?” Both Alice and I looked at him in shock.
“It’s time to go.” Aiden looked mad, madder than I’d ever seen him before. I looked at Alice’s face and she looked pissed off. I stared at them for a second and I wondered if their relationship was over before it even started. That would serve Aiden right. He was acting like a real idiot. I was used to his imperialist nature, but I knew Alice was getting her first real glimpse of it and was likely not appreciating it.
“Aiden, we’re not leaving.” I shouted at him, letting him bear the brunt of my anger. “You two shouldn’t have come here.”
“We wanted to make sure you were both okay.” He looked over at Alice and frowned as she smiled at some guy that was dancing next to her. “Two single girls have to be careful these days.”
“We know how to take care of ourselves.” I sighed and then looked at Xander. “Where’s Gabby?”
“She’s with Henry.” His eyes bore into mine. “Do you wish she was here instead?”
“No do you?”
“No.” He said simply and my heart thudded away dangerously as I gazed into his eyes. What was it about this man that he could pierce my heart and soul with a glance and leave me aching with want and need at just one touch.
